Squats and Handstand Pushups - My Kind of Friday Training

Today was the last heavy session of this 8 week training cycle.  Next week I’ll take it down a notch, deload, work on some stuff I suck at, and have a little bit of fun with my training.  I cannot stress how important these types of weeks are for your training.  Whether it’s once every [...]

Full Body Training Log: Wk 7 - Day 2

There was lot of heavy pushing today.  My bench still isn’t great but it’s improving nonetheless.  The bench isn’t even one of my favorite lifts but I believe in working at the lifts you don’t perform very well.  Whether it’s the bench(for me), olympic lifts, pullups, or conditioning, you must practice them.  Get better at [...]

More hill sprints and slegehammer training.

Sunday morning begins my training week.  I like to get up early and get in some killer fat burning conditioning.  Trust me, it’s a great way to start off the week!  This morning I hit a little hill sprint and sledgehammer circuit.  I performed two hill sprints then walked over to the tire and did [...]

Why you must include conditioning in your training plan…

I’ll keep this one short and sweet.
To me incorporating conditioning is a no brainer.  If you’ve been following this site for a while you know I’m a huge proponent! Forget traditional cardio!  As the say “conditioning is where it’s at!”  However, I am by no means advocating the abolishing of all steady state cardio, there [...]
